Twitter streets left unimpressed on Katlego Maboe's nomination for an award following cheating scandal

Katlego Maboe has been nominated in the 'Best Presenter' Category at this year's awards ceremony. 

The nod has been met with a strong reaction from social media users who found Katlego's nomination to be inappropriate following his major cheating scandal last year.

The South African television personality Katlego Maboe was filmed in a video confessing to being unfaithful to his wife and giving her a sexually transmitted disease last year.

In the video, you can hear Maboe's wife asking him whom he slept with. Maboe responds after he is threatened that he may never see his son again if he does not confess to the truth. A woman is then mentioned by the TV personality.

Many South Africans were taken aback because his wife filmed this conversation, but more so, people were shocked at Maboe's behaviour. He has, after all, projected himself to be a very model public figure. 

Since the cheating scandal, Katlego was removed as the face of the popular OUTsurance ads that he featured in. Apart from some court sightings, Katlego has kept a low profile. 

His recent nod in the South African Film and Television Awards, however has brought his name back into the headlines. There have been some mixed reviews in Katlego's nod, bringing up the debate on whether you can celebrate the person from his craft.
